About Sieve Shaker Gyratory
Sieve Shaker Gyratory
Carries upto 7 sieves of 150mm or 200mm diameter.
The shaker is driven by a h.p (motor through a reduction a reduction gear immersed in oil.
The sieve table does not rotate but is inclined from the vertical axis and the direction of inclination changes progressively in clockwise direction.
If the stop-pin below the table is removed, the shaker can have a rotary motion.
In addition to this gyaratory motion of the table, there is an upward and downward movement ensuring that each square cm of the sieve is utilized.
A pair of rods and holder are supplied.
The holder can be fixed on the top of the upper most sieves and thus the sieve set is firmly held.
Suitable for operation on 230 Volts, 50 cycles single phase, A.C. Supply.

FAQ's of Sieve Shaker Gyratory:
Q: How does the Sieve Shaker Gyratory work to separate particle sizes?
A: The sieve stack is securely clamped and the electric motor activates an eccentric drive mechanism, producing both gyratory and tapping motions. This agitation separates granular materials by particle size, enabling accurate and repeatable particle size distribution (PSD) analysis.
Q: What types of materials can be analyzed with the Sieve Shaker Gyratory?
A: This equipment is suitable for aggregates, cement, powdered materials, and soils, making it valuable for civil engineering, mining, pharmaceutical, and research applications where precise particle sizing is essential.
Q: When should the Sieve Shaker Gyratory be used in a laboratory setting?
A: It should be used whenever standardized, accurate particle size assessment is required-such as during material quality control, incoming material analysis, soil classification, or research-driven particle studies.
Q: Where is the Sieve Shaker Gyratory commonly utilized?
A: The apparatus finds regular use in civil engineering labs, mining sectors, pharmaceutical quality control facilities, and research institutions across India and globally.
Q: What are the core benefits of using a mechanical gyratory/tapping sieve shaker for PSD analysis?
A: Key benefits include standardized and repeatable agitation, high accuracy (100%), reduced human error, improved testing consistency, and faster analysis thanks to semi-automated operation with analog/digital timers.
Q: How does the automatic timer function aid the sieving process?
A: The analog or digital timer is programmed for the required duration, after which the shaker automatically shuts off, ensuring uniform test duration and minimizing operator oversight for optimal repeatability.
Q: What maintenance procedures should be followed for long-lasting operation?
A: Routine checks include ensuring all moving parts are lubricated, the clamping device is secure, and the electric motor functions smoothly. Periodic cleaning of the sieves and machine exterior is also recommended to prolong durability.
